Snipers are for the most part opportunist killers who prey on those not paying attention.......Shotgun guys who only use Conspiracy theory-D or other high impact one shot guns with blink are the epitomy of no skill. So for me, i'd say both are equally as "newby" although there are exceptions. The people who have skill are those who are successful against a huge playerbase only using one type of gun like one-shot shottys (that's about to get nerfed) lmao.
